Jason Mingledorff
Jason Mingledorff is one of New Orleans’ most versatile and in-demand saxophonists, composers, and educators. His early musical experiences in Alabama, nurtured on the spiritual music of the church and the soulful grooves coming out of Muscle Shoals, have been evident in his intense, individual approach to playing saxophone throughout his career.
For over three decades, Jason has been asked to play with some of the world’s most recognizable stars – including Aretha Franklin, Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett, The Band, Michael McDonald, Peter Frampton, Jeff Tweedy, Wayne Newton, Johnny Mathis, Frankie Valli, The O’Jays, The Temptations, and The Four Tops and Noel Gallagher. Meanwhile, Jason has continued to share the history of New Orleans music with some of its most beloved artists – Dr. John (Grammy-winning City that Care Forgot and Oscar-nominated “Down in New Orleans” from Princess and the Frog), Harry Connick, Jr., Irma Thomas, The Neville Brothers, Benny Turner, George Porter. Jr., Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, Anders Osborne, Better Than Ezra, Jon Cleary, Ingrid Lucia, and The Iguanas.
Jason is releasing his long-overdue debut album, Start It!, in the spring of 2023 and is excited to start this new chapter now as bandleader in what has already been a blessed career.
